HP Pavilion Gaming EC-1051ax
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hey HP community I just wanted to know if the F.11 BIOS is stable or not. Is this BIOS similar to the earlier F.08 release on other systems in Pavilion series. Because that version was faulty as everyone in this forum knows.

So I'm asking people with the same model as me

Can you guys please confirm?

Wow 2300 people have seen this post and no one has the same model. Is the community only active when there's an issue?

Any improvements with the new BIOS?

HP Recommended

I dont know its still same maybe, im not sure because i just updated 5 hours ago..  but on the description say :

Fix and enhancements:

- Prevents a potential issue where the fan does not function normally.

Yeah I read that too but I don't find any issue with the fan. I'm still on F.2 as I bought my laptop like 3 days ago.

I will never use the latest version of HP BIOS again.

As long as the old version runs smoothly or there are no problems, I will not change the version of the bios.

I am now using the bios version F2 (downgraded from F8).

Bios version F5 has a bug, boost cannot be activated.
Bios version F8 also has a bug, when playing the game for a while, it must experience locking / shutdown.

I am using ec0037ax

My bios ver when i buy it its on version f.5 , and if u update to the f.10 ( or f.11 for now ) u can change the keyboard backlight timeout from bios, thats a new feature for amd processor series 😄 + support win 10 ver 2004  on description (f.10)

HP Recommended

yeah i know that issues happen on amd 3000 series, and i never ( until now ) found that issues on intel processor / amd 4000 series.

I'm not on the same platform (I'm on  HP ENVY - 13-aq0002na) but I assume the bios versions will be similar, BIOS version F13 and F13 A should be avoided.  my laptop keeps randomly freezing, no warning, no error message and the only way it works again is to power down and power up again.
